OUR SIMULATION
We have 100 000 GBP net profit annually. We are a startup that operates in the IT area. We earn GBP 100,000 annually. The assumption of our calculation is the investment pro model. We will not pay any dividends. We also do not want to incur costs to minimize taxes only to accumulate capital. We will now compare Great Britain and Estonia with Tax Corporation tax.
